First Edition. Octavo. Blue cloth, gilt spine, gilt title on upper panel. 110 pp. Numerous black and white photos of Beachy over the years. Inscribed to Ruth duPont Lord on the front free endpaper in the year of publication. Gently sunned at spine and edges, else very good; without a dust jacket, as issued. First edition. Touching and heartfelt tribute from a mother to her daughter, Beatrice Talbot [1920-1957], nicknamed "Bice," which devolved into "Beachy" over time. Beachy was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis in the spring of 1957 and succumbed in November of that year after a seemingly successful operation to have her thymus removed. The recipient of this copy of the tribute was a roommate and close friend of Beachy Talbot's at Vassar, and appears in some of the photos included in the text. Ms. duPont Lord "was the last private resident of the Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library, a 175-room mansion and large estate that her father, Henry Francis du Pont, developed to house his collection of American decorative arts, breed cattle, and cultivate gardens. Winterthur became a public museum and grounds in 1951. As had long been her preference, Lord maintained a smaller residence called Golf Cottage on the estate (along with residences in New Haven, New York, and Florida)" -- from Wikipedia. Signed.…

Erzählt die Jugend des Iren John Linehan, der nach der Auswanderung in die USA 36 Jahre in den Diensten der Autorin und ihres Ehemann, dem renommierten Bostoner Arzt Dr. Fritz Bradley Talbot (1878-1964), stand. Linehan (eigtl. Lenehan) wurde 1874 als eins von 13 Geschwistern im County Roscommon, im Zentrum Irlands, geboren. Er verließ früh die Schule und arbeitete als junger Erwachsener hauptsächlich als Kutscher und Pferdeknecht. Nachdem er sich in eine junge Frau verliebte, die nach Amerika auswanderte, folgte er ihr nach Boston. Seine Schilderung des von Armut, Gewalt und harter körperlicher Arbeit geprägten Lebens im Irland des ausgehenden 19. Jahrhunderts ist beeindruckend. Beatrice Bill Talbot bemüht sich sehr, den sprachlichen Duktus von Linehans Lebensbericht beizubehalten. Der Autor des Vorworts, Padraic Coldum, würdigt entsprechend das "große Glück" Linehans "of finding a collaborator who made his story what it should be, an oral one in which the voice of the narrator comes over to us whith the rhythms of speech that give style to the talk of the Irish folk" (S. XII). - Vorderer Vorsatz mit Visitenkarte der Autorin "Mrs. Fritz Bradley Talbot" mit eigenhändiger Ergänzung "In appreciation of our delightful visit in Baden-Baden". - Die Karte ist mit einer Nadel festgesteckt. Diese ist angerostet und färbt etwas auf den Vortitel ab, sonst sauberes und gutes Exemplar.…
